Fat Cat Diary A taste of Eden in the far east?

The 1981 French film, Diva, was, I think, the first time that loft-living in edgy urban areas was made to look cool, but if you spend most of your time in north or west London then the extent to which this idea has taken hold in the east of the City will amaze you. It’s not neat and tidy like Mayfair or Chelsea, but it’s a spectacular example of what money, energy and imagination can make happen.
